An infinite loop is usually caused by a programming defect. If you start a loop (for, do, while, etc…) and don’t give it a way to exit, the loop could keep processing forever.

Normally that is! But on this “super computer”, it’s so fast, it can finish processing an infinite loop in a few seconds.

That’s not really possible, since the loop is “infinite” and that’s what makes this humorous. The second part of the statement comes as a surprise.

Capice?
